I had noticed the change, hence the question about those pre-orders. If I remember well, these pre-orders were supposed to apply to "the first 1-500 miners" (and 500-1000) miners that they were to produce, regardless of the specs. But I'm not really sure now.

The queue system is still on for the current version ..that is what I am pretty sure. But for earlier version .. since they are not going to produce them what is the purpose of having the queue?

When I ordered, I did not order for miner model ABC or XYZ, nor did I order for miner with hashrate XXX, I just did a pre-order for their FIRST miner, whatever it was (trying to quote them more or less out of memory). It was about the time when this topic was at page 3...

We definitely need more competition between ASIC manufacturer, so KnCMiner can only do good if they are a serious business with the required competences IMO.

Yes, I spoke with Sam and he told me they are definitely respecting the queue numbers. I have a super early preorder (order ID way below 100), and he told me that I would receive the units in that preorder in September. Additional units should be delivered in October.

If you read correctly he was saying about the 2 earlier models pre order with number 1-500 and this 2 earlier models was subsequently change to Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. Provided you have pre order early for Mars, Jupiter or Saturn otherwise how to be in the earlier queue? Unless you are referring to Mars, Jupiter and Saturn?

I made a preorder at the beginning of April, I really do not remember what units were they selling at that moment, but I know that now I want the 350GHs thing (which I think was not available at the beginning of April).

Anyhow, the preorder states:

KNC Bitcoin miner numbers 1-500

Sam told me that queue number would be respected, and I would receive the units of Jupiter I preorder in the first batch (September) - the rest of units (let's say I want to buy 5, and I only stated "1" unit in the preorder) will be received in October.

The customers who have previously registered interest in our products will be given the opportunity to complete their orders for either Mars or Jupiter. The preregistered customers will keep their queue position for the new products.More info will follow in next few days.

That is what I am referring to indeed.I would like to use my pre-order (that was changed to what you say) to buy a Mars model.

I am guessing they wouldn't be a problem with long queue for the Mars Model, most of us are reallytargeting for the bigger models, if it is less than 100 sets order of this Mars model, everyone should get theirs about the sametime, but for the September bigger models it may be different. You may not take delivery immediately because ordersneeds to be collected and send for batch productions, same thing like the avalon chips, collected in 200k batchbefore sending for production. The best is to get hold of Sam .

Haven't a clue how/if that affects them. It's a shame to see tbh as the last time I was in Sweden it was the archetype of a tolerant society. Still the media will portray an agenda they want to create...perhaps a local can divulge more?

I'm guessing KNC have gone a little quiet until they have a fresh date and something worth saying that they are in control of themselves. Which I can respect to an extent, no one wants false promises.

That said we need assurance that September is a feasible and definite deadline and won't be subject to delays.

Perhaps weekly update is something else that can be requested at the meet-up? I know over promising is nothing anyone wants, but w.r.t. public relations being the chink in the armour of their competitors, knowing to expect regular updates at a set time, say Friday afternoon, or a Monday morning, even if trivial would quell speculation, and retain a more positive vibe to this thread, and project. It would probably ease the strain on their email accounts as well!

Make my day! Say thanks if you found me helpful BTC Address --->1487ThaKjezGA6SiE8fvGcxbgJJu6XWtZp
